Some feel that it perpetuates indoctrinations. A "lady" behaves rather than acts. She doesn't express her opinions, is pampered and in effect, is little more than a pet of the finest variety. A very small percentage of people object to this word, but I thought you might want to know why some people do. Why the hell do people have such a hard time calling a woman a woman? Was the switch from "Negro" as tough?
